Zhu Di turned the horse's head, rode to the side of my carriage, and asked me through the window, "Are you afraid?" If the Northern Yuan army turns around and storms this place, we will only have 2,000 men left. ”

I looked at him level and whispered, "Not afraid." ”

"Why?" he asked. ”

"Because you're here. I believe that the remaining elite soldiers can be defeated by 100 under your leadership, and wait for our reinforcements to return. "And with his strategy, if he dares to rush in and rescue us with only five thousand elite soldiers, it must have calculated all possibilities, and two thousand men are enough.

But seeing him curl the corners of his lips, he smiled and said, "Lan'er, you overestimate me too much." If I hadn't judged that you were in this breakthrough team, I wouldn't have killed it so impulsively, and I would have chosen a better and more convenient way to kill the Northern Yuan army. ”

Does he mean it's because of me? can't be pretentious to say thanks, and this life-saving grace can only be compensated for by a "thank you"? He asked, "How did you know that I would be on this breakout team?" ”

"With Ping'er's heart, I must first try to send you out of the encirclement, and this is the closest to Yaoguan. If I'm not mistaken, it must have been after you set off, he took the initiative to attack the Northern Yuan army head-on, trying to open a gap for you. ”

I almost rolled off the carriage and asked, "What did you say?" He is already at war with the Northern Yuan? ”

Zhu Di fixed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, although he is the deputy marshal in the army, the generals below know that he has never led soldiers, and he is the identity of the emperor's grandson, so he will not let him go into battle in person." And Zhu Neng has already ......"

"What if General Zhu doesn't rescue him in time? And even if he caught up, the Yan army he led would not be able to go deep into the hinterland immediately, and could only be killed from the periphery. The 100,000 soldiers of the Northern Yuan Dynasty besieged us on a large scale, isn't it a trend of overturning? Zhu Di, before this, we heard that you were trapped by the Northern Yuan army, and we have already allocated 5,000 elite soldiers to rush to the rescue, and just now a few thousand people took me to break through, and there are less than 40,000 soldiers left on Ah Ping's side. ”

My anxiety and urgency fell on Zhu Di's eyes, and he pondered for a moment before speaking: "If you don't worry, I'll take you to see it." ”

"Can you?" My heart tightened, and my eyes filled with anticipation.

He replied, "Yes." ”

In the afterglow, a general on a horse immediately stepped forward, and as soon as he shouted "marshal", he was stopped by Zhu Di raising his hand, only to hear him speak aloud and asked: "Our deputy marshal is still trapped in the enemy camp, what should you do?" ”

"Kill and save people!" One mouth, a hundred voices, I only heard "kill, kill, kill" in my ears, and my heart said that this may be Zhu Di's way of governing the army. Zhu Di turned his eyes to me and asked, "Do you believe me?" If you believe, I will ride with me on a horse. ”

Dingding looked at those eyes and spit out two words: "I believe." ”

When I got out of the carriage, Changning grabbed my clothes and shook my head: "Sister, don't go back." I smiled at him and stroked his hair, "Changning, he's still in the woods, I have to go see him." ”

After getting out of the carriage, I walked to Zhu Di's horse, and when I saw him stretching out his hand to me, I looked up at him and said, "Can you arrange some people to protect this carriage?" He nodded slightly, but said to me, "Give me your hand, and I'll pull you up." ”

I didn't hesitate and put my hand in his palm. I have never eaten pork and seen pigs run, and I have seen how they get on the horse many times, and I always have some impressions. With his strength, he pushed upward, and one rolled over and sat behind him. The saddle was hard, and it hurt a little to sit under my buttocks, but Zhu Di let go of my palm and whispered to me: "Sit down." ”

I thought I was seated, but he looked back and said, "You're going to fall down if you sit like this, hold my waist." Hearing this, I was stunned and couldn't help but hesitate. This is to rescue Ah Ping, originally I shouldn't have ridden with Zhu Di, if he saw me holding another man again, then the flying vinegar would be turned upside down? And the soldiers in front of the army are watching, and they are afraid that they will feel sorry in their hearts.

Just as I was hesitating, I suddenly felt a tightness on my waist, and when I looked down, Zhu Di actually took a blue ribbon and tied me to his waist. Immediately, without waiting for my reaction, I just heard him shout: "Sit tight." A whip had been drawn on the horse's buttocks, and the horse cried and galloped out like an arrow off the string. I instinctively grabbed his arm, still terrified.

I'm sure I don't have a fear of heights, but it's the first time I've been on horseback for the first time at this altitude. It felt like every next moment I might get off my horse, and at this speed I would have fallen off my horse, and even if I didn't break my neck, I would be trampled to death by the horses of the galloping sergeants behind me.

I once remembered the kind of glass bridge plank road in my previous life, there are countless scientific bases to prove that the bridge is safe, even if it is a few tons of heavy objects, it is impossible to make the glass bridge unbearable, let alone bear the weight of a person. But everyone understands this truth, but when they look down and see the abyss under the transparent glass, they can't help but tremble and be afraid.

It's not that the glass bridge is unsafe, it's that people don't feel safe.

Maybe this metaphor is not appropriate for the moment, and the risk I experience on a horse is several times higher than that of the glass boardwalk, but it is the same - lack of security. So I grabbed Zhu Di's hand tightly and didn't dare to let go, and he didn't pull it back, only controlled the horse under him with one hand, and galloped towards the depths of the woods.

As soon as I entered the woods, I felt sick to the smell of blood, and the corpses everywhere I was cold from head to toe, and I repeatedly told myself that it was impossible, but I could not convince the facts I saw. Even if most of those corpses are in the costume of the Northern Yuan Army, there are also my soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. One thing has been confirmed, that is, the Northern Yuan army has attacked the woods.

The horse could no longer gallop freely, but could only walk around the corpse, and the forest was silent, only the sound of horses' hooves was slowly advancing. At this time, I will no longer urge Zhu Di to move quickly, if Ah Ping really doesn't have this fate, even if I have wings, it will be too late. Finally saw a figure haunting, and at a glance recognized it as Yan Jun's black armor outfit, and then looked at the person in the first column, who was it not Zhu Gaoxu?

"It's them!" I couldn't help but moan.

Zhu Di responded lightly in front of him.

Zhu Gaoxu turned his head when he heard the sound, and when he saw that it was us, someone immediately got out of the way, and he drove his horse to the front and asked, "Marshal, why are you here too?" As soon as the words fell, my eyes drifted towards me again, but my attention was not on him, my eyes passed through the crowd to find Ah Ping's figure, but the dense crowd blocked the line of sight in front of me and couldn't find it.

"I'm going to get off the horse." I asked softly.

Zhu Di glanced back at me, didn't say anything and pulled the cloth belt knot around his waist, I was about to turn over and dismount but was blocked by his long arm, stunned only to feel a tightness around my waist, the next moment the person rose into the air, and when I felt that my feet were sinking, I had already landed on the ground.

It's impossible not to be surprised, and the heartbeat flies instinctively. Ignoring the eyes of others, I only said "thank you" to Zhu Di and was about to walk forward, but I heard Zhu Di say softly: "What I want is your thanks?" ”

Suddenly stopped, my body gradually stiffened, my hands hanging down at my side clenched into fists, did not look back, and said word by word: "The grace of saving life cannot be repaid, and it must be remembered in my heart." "I don't know what else to do about it, he already knew what he meant for me, but I couldn't repay him. Today, he will do whatever it takes to lead troops to save me, and this love will always be remembered.

Walking through the soldiers and generals, when he crossed Zhu Gaoxu's horse, he was heard muttering: "Xiaolan." "I didn't pay attention to it, because I had already seen the backs of Yan Qi and Green Lotus standing side by side, and beside them were the Jinyi guards who had just gone together.

What are they looking at? A voice in my heart asked. There was only a few feet left, but my steps slowed, and the silence around me raised a cold fear in my heart. I saw Yan Qi slowly turn around and look at me, I couldn't see what his expression was, because I saw a person lying on the ground, the arrow in his chest was silent, and he was wearing the silver armor of the marshal's uniform!

Looking at the motionless body, I couldn't believe it was true, and I trembled so much that I couldn't do it. I pinched myself hard, the pain sobered me up, and I stepped forward step by step.

I don't know if it was the soldiers or the brocade guards who gave way to me, until I came to the front, all emotions were about to rise but then stopped, because I found that the person lying on the ground was not Ah Ping. Sure that this armor was Ah Ping's, and the boss had golden iron plates on his armor, but the person was not him, I turned back in astonishment and asked Yan Qi: "What about him?" ”

Yan Qi also shook his head at me blankly: "When we rushed in, we saw a cold arrow shooting Gongzi off the horse, and rushed here to find that this person was not Gongzi, and Gongzi was nowhere to be found. ”

Nowhere to be found? I looked around blankly, obviously I was separated from him here, is it really as Zhu Di said that after I left, he had a follow-up move and had a head-on conflict with the Northern Yuan army, so why did this soldier who died here wearing his armor?

"Bring you into the urn."

Suddenly, Zhu Di's voice came from behind me, and I turned around, only to see that he had already driven his horse over, and his eyes fell on the corpse on the ground. I didn't quite understand what he meant, and asked, "What did you say?" ”

"Ping'er has already gotten out of the circle."

When I heard this, I was even more puzzled: "How can you see it?" ”

Zhu Di: "This person is a signal left for me, Ping'er has calculated that I can rush back to help, but he didn't calculate that he arranged the best soldiers for you and didn't break through the gap, and he led the troops to attract the firepower of the Northern Yuan army." ”

"According to what you said, shouldn't he fight the Northern Yuan army somewhere?"

Zhu Di shook his head, "You still don't understand, is this person wearing a handsome disguise and is there only one person?" ”

I was stunned, and suddenly came over, in addition to the Northern Yuan Army and our soldiers lying on the ground around the scene, this is a Shura field. These soldiers left behind are the dead soldiers who really attracted the strength of the Northern Yuan army, and their existence is for the final sacrifice.

It's so cruel!
